RE: hi new and want to learn..
your firewall will need to allow Proxo access to the web AND allow your browser access to Proxo (assuming your firewall checks "loopbacks")...

i myself use Proxo with GreenBrowser, Opera, Sleipnir, Maxthon, SlimBrowser, Iron, Chrome, and Firefox, among others just to try 'em out, but the browsers listed are my "maintained" browsers, pretty much always latest-and-greatest (i no longer waste my time with betas though)...

the IE Shells i use as shells to IE6, 7, and 8 (though 98% of the time strictly to IE8)...

i will not even use Winamp without it going through Proxo (for Winamp's port 80 activity only, not the audio streams themselves)...


your browser will need set up for HTTP (and HTTPS, but that's "optional") traffic to go through "localhost:8080" then Proxo set to "listen" for traffic on port 8080...

getting to know Proxo isn't for the faint of heart, but trust me, once you do, you'll NEVER browse the 'net without it...
